On Wednesday, the Commander for the DC National Guard testified before Congress and explained that his ability to activate his reservist troops had been intentionally hampered in the weeks leading up to the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, despite the overwhelming danger of a possible attack. He also told lawmakers that he would have “immediately” activated his forces to assist US Capitol Police on Jan. 6, if his authority had not been restricted by Army leadership and the Pentagon.
Excellent article and thanks for the most pertinent video clips! Fascinating to hear Commander Walker’s account of what happened. The article draws together some of the info that I had read and suspected into a more cohesive confirmation of what I had thought.
Makes me furious that Trump, the Flynns, and many other military members and members of Congress are co-conspirators yet they are free to go about their lives without consequences!
This is horrifying beyond belief.

This whole operation has the smell of Trump's armpits all over it. This doesn't sound like the usual military screw-up. This sounds intentional.
